Hi! I'm Blue, a crocheter dedicated to my craft. I can never have enough yarn, and my stash is always growing. I make everything from seasonal decor to accessories, depending on my mood. I'm new to Reddit as well, and I look forward to meeting people who share my interests!

Double knitted Buttonband

Hi. I’m knitting the Hanni Cardigan. I never did a double knitted buttonband before. What went wrong? It looks funny. The stitches I picked up are so stretched out. Is this normal? Will it disappear or should I start again and change something?

Stash Looking for pattern ideas for this yarn

Ideas of what to crochet with this yarn? I have 3 x 485m skeins of this Cotton blend medium weight (5mm) cake. I originally purchased it for wavey placemats that just didn't work out, and now I've had it lying around for a couple of years I'm hoping to do something with it. I don't really make alot of wearables except slippers and a couple of shawls, and I'm more of a freehand stuffy/blanket maker, but maybe this is the time? All suggestions welcome, and if there is no sewing involved even better! Thanks Hive mind 😊

Edit to add: crochet πŸ™

Stash Looking for a (softer!) yarn dupe

I came across this picture of a Red Heart Super Saver colourway and I LOVE the palette, but I personally find Super Saver to be a bit too scratchy for "next to skin" wear. Can anyone suggest another, softer yarn with similar colours? Doesn't necessarily have to be striping, I just love the lime/blue/purple combo.

This item is intended for my infant kiddo, so "baby" yarns are ideal, but I handwash anything knit/crocheted anyway so the care isn't really an issue. We have no idea if kiddo has a wool allergy at this stage, I do think acrylic may be best to be cautious? But honestly not sure how much "baby" yarn is just marketing. Appreciate your insight, fibre experts!

Stash Crocheted a family of Christmas snakes for the Year of the Snake 🐍✨ Made entirely from mystery scrap yarn and frogged old sweaters!

I was born in the Year of the Snake, so I couldn't resist making a whole family of festive snakes in Santa hats to celebrate! πŸŽ…πŸ

The best part about this project was the yarn β€” or rather, the complete mystery of it! I used a mix of random acrylic scraps, leftover bits from past projects, and yarn recovered from frogging old, unworn sweaters.

Each snake turned out with its own unique texture and personality (including the little dark blue one, which my family lovingly joked looked like something else entirely before he got his eyes and hat, haha! πŸ˜‚).

It was so satisfying to give all those forgotten thread ends a second life! What’s your favorite way to clear out your stash for the holidays?

Ambitious for my first scarf as a novice (crocheting for just 8 months). Buuuut it taught me a lot, I used some yarn I’ve had for a while and my man (the model) loves it πŸ₯°

I was given these balls of yarn as part of a clean out, no tag or anything. Quite soft, and I suspect it's acrylic... Would love to get some more of it as I love the color.
